The Reports of the Surgeon General contains official reports, conference and workshop reports, and proceedings
from the
Office of the Surgeon General.
As part of its Profiles in Science project,
the National
Library of Medicine has digitized and made available over
the World Wide Web the Reports of the Surgeon General
for use by the public.

This online Exhibit is designed to introduce you to
the history of the Reports of the Surgeon General, as well as to the
official reports. It is divided into sections that focus on the
subjects covered in the various Reports of the Surgeon General.
We suggest that new visitors begin with this exhibit, which includes
a small selection of documents and visuals, organized within
these sections. Each section begins with a "Background
Narrative," which leads to "Documents" and "Visuals."

Visitors may access additional materials through Search
on the navigation bar. They may also view the materials alphabetically or
chronologically by choosing Browse
on the navigation bar. Documents and visuals in these lists are arranged by
format and then either alphabetically by title or chronologically.
